while the engine is idling, and
an adjustable steering wheel
that can be set in seven differ-
ent positions to suit the individ-
ual driver.
Another new option on the
regular line is a cruise-control
for turnpike driving. The cruise-
control can be set for any legal
speed above 30 miles an -.hour
and the car will maintain that
speed. A touch of the brake
pedal releases the cruise-control
when a change in speed is de-
sired.
Engine options on the Special
remain the same with the 198
cubic inch V-6 as standard on
the regular models and optional
on the deluxe. A more powerful
215 cubic inch aluminum V-8
with 9-to-1 compression ratio is
standard on the deluxe models
with the V-6 available as an op-
tion.
In LeSabre models, a three-
speed synchromesh transmission
is standard. The Turbine Drive
transmission, which has been
improved for 1963, is an option.
Turbine Drive is standard on all
other methods in 'the regular

Instrument panels in all mod-

The self-adjusting brakes auto-
matically compensate for lining

periodic brake adjustments.

The 1963 Pontiac, described
as having a “fresh visual im-

display Thursday at Crain Pon-

St.
Pontiac’s high volume produc-
tion series, the Catalina, is
available in seven models; two
and four-door sedans, two and-
four-door hardtops, six and nine
passenger Safaris and a conver-
tible. The Star Chief is offered
in a four-door hardtop Vista and
four-door sedan models. The lux-
urious Bonneville is available in
four models; two and four-door
hardtops, a six-passenger Sa-
fari and a convertible.
Retaining a strong Pontiac
identity, the 1963 cars have a
split grille that features sunken
air scoops flanked by an execlu-
sive "over and under” vertical
headlight arrangement which
extends the wide track theme.
Rear end styling is expansively
wide, and once again distinctive-
ly Pontiac.
Traditionally luxurious, Pon-
tiac’s new interiors are tasteful-
ly fashioned in the latest luxury
fabrics of nylon, vinyl and leath-
er. Color combinations have
been expanded and solid nylon
blend carpet floor covering adds
to interior decor.

Roll call was answered with
"What I Like To Do Best.” Dur-
ing the business session, com-
mittee reports and council re-
port were heard. Mrs. D. H.
Baker was elected as council
representative and Mrs. Ethel
Redfearn was named as re-

Bonneville sports coupe and
four-door Vista interiors are off-
ered in trim combinations of
—rich—textured_cloth combined
with Jeweltone or solid Morrok-
ides. Deeply padded doors with

custom hardware and star stud-
ded healining are other Bonne-
ville features. All Bonneville
models have walnut wood inlays
in the strument panel and horn
ring.
Star Chief models have tradit-
ionally rich interiors and, like
the Bonnevilles, have many
standard equipment features in-
cluding distinctive instrument
panel with electric clock, cus-
tom steering wheel and deluxe
wheel discs. Seats are trimmed
in either a combination of nylon
face yarn fabric and Morrokide,
or in all Morrokide. Floor areas
are fully carpeted.
Catalina interiors have added
appeal with the 1963 models. The
sports sedan trim is nylon fac-
ed fabric combined with Jewel-
tone Morrokide. The four-door
sedan is available with this
same type of trim and also in
the all Morrokide Ventura cus-
tom trim option. Catalina sports
coupe and Vista models have
their own special trim of nylon
fabric and are available in the
Ventura custom option. Conver-
.tible coupes have interiors of
solid Morrokide and there is a
choice of six top colors. Like all
Catalina models, full floor car-
peting is found in the passenger
compartment and cowl panels
are solid plastic. s
In edition to new styling, new
colors and new interiors, the
1963 Pontiac offers greatly im-
proved front and rear suspens-
ion, self adjusting brakes, in-
creased engine performance,
less owner maintenance and sig-
l nificant developments in new
accessories and safety items.

“Birdman of Alcatraz,” though
his recent victory for “Elmer

Robert Preston deserves rec-

Yet to be seen are Peter O’-

HOLLYWOOD I — The Oscar
race for 1962 is now taking
shape and one thing seems prob-
able: Hollywood’s highest honor
will be brought back to Holly-
wood.
Last April the Academy vot-
ers, in an outburst of interna-
tional good-will, tossed golden
statues to a pair of foreigners--
Sophia Loren and Maximilian
Schell.
That feat is not likely to be
repeated next spring. As it ap-
pears now, the Oscar derby will
be dominated by Yankee en-
tries.
The outline of the race can be
seen now. The majority of the
major entries will hit the Los
Angeles theaters just before the
yearend deadline. - ——
Most of the December entries
haven’t been previewed yet, so
the forecaster must go on prob-
ability of quality. Will "Mutiny
on the Bounty” be a class film
or purely commercial? If it pos-
sesses much artistic value at all,
it is likely to be the leading con-
tender among the films.
Another unknown quantity is
"Lawrence of Arabia.” But
judging from past performances
of the producer Sam Spiegel "On
the Waterfront,” "Bridge on the
River Kwai”. the desert epie
will also be among the front-
runners.

Buick for 1963 makes its local
bow Thursday at Ralph Black-
burn Motors, 012 S. Jefferson.
There are 26 models in the en-
tire line, including nine in the
Special, seven in LeSabre, one
in the Invicta, three in the Wild-
cat, one in the Riviera and five
in the Electra 225 series, .
All regular-size Buicks main-
tain approximately the same de-
mensions as last year, but the
Special models will be four inch-
es longer.
The Wildcat has been expand-
ed into a complete series. A
four-speed, floor-mounted trans-
mission is available as an option
on Wildcat models. Front buck-
et seats are standard on the
convertible and two-door hard-
top and optional on the four-door
hardtop.
This is the first time Buick
has offered its complete line
with distinctive styling for each
series, Blackburn Mid. From
the Special through the Electra
225, each series has a complete-
ly different appearance.
The Wildcat has its own grille
design with brushed stainless
steel moldings extending down
the sides from the headlight to
the middle of the front door.
The new Special has been in-
creased in length from 188.4 to
192.1 inches. The additional
length is in the rear fenders.
Smart new interiors, luxur-
iously done in a wide choice of
nylon, leather and vinyl fabrics,
add to the overall decor of both
the Special and regular line.
Engineering refinements in-
clude self-adjusting brakes, the
new Delcotron alternator gene-

“The Longest Day,” which

“Freud,” "Day of Wine and

"Taras Bulba.” "Two for the

And don’t forget some*of the
releases earlier in the year:
'Birdman of Alcatraz,” "Coun-
terfeit Traitor,” ‘Music Man,”
"Miracle Worker” and “Sweet
Bird of Youth."
